    I havent made stuffed cabbage leaves in awhile. I do make stuffed peppers more often tho I prefer the cabbage more then the rest of my family. I make stuffed pepper soup also which we like and Im sure you could do that with the cabbage to. Never thought of that before but Im sure gonna try it. Thanks for the great recipe. Enjoy ; )
